Golf Rossendale tees up free beginners golf lessons

The range, based at Marl Pits Sports Complex in Rawtenstall, has secured funding from England Golf to be able to offer free beginners lessons with PGA Pro Mike Bardi.

The initiative is part of the Road to the Open Project to celebrate The Open being at Royal Lytham and St Anne’s Golf Club this year.

The free 30 minute lessons will take place on Tuesday 3rd July between 12pm-6pm.

Normally it would cost £19 for a half hour lesson including all balls and equipment, but thanks to the funding the coaching will be free and all golfers will have to pay for is the balls they use during their session at a special rate of just £5 per 100 balls.

Golf Rossendale’s managing director Scott Grundy said: “We are delighted that England Golf have approved our funding application so that we can offer free sessions.

“As a Rangemark facility we want to encourage as many new people as possible to pick up a club and give golf a try, and this project has helped us to do this.

“We are looking forward to Tuesday and hope that as many people as possible take advantage of these free taster sessions.
